An absolutely wonderful option while visiting Martinborough and the surrounding vineyards. Helen and Gordie have done an admirable job creating the Gatehouse on their vineyard “26 Rows”. Tastefully decorated, designed with all the comforts of home. A must stay in the area.
Very happy with the quality and location of the accommodation. Owner very accommodating and friendly. Clean and tidy with all the extra little things that make staying away enjoyable. Great location and local knowledge to suit

We loved our stay at Gatehouse Cottage . It had everything we could have wished for and so peaceful . Walking distance to the square and lots of wineries . Martinborough is a special place and 26 Rows is the ideal spot to stay .
The Gatehouse was perfect for our stay with friends. It had all that we required to enjoy meals together and coffee/tea/wine on the porch taking in the view. Very quiet and peaceful.
Fantastic Property & Accommodation, modern, very clean and everything supplied.
Our Hosts Helen & Gordon were very accommodating, even supplying options for breakfast and Wine from there Vineyard.
We loved our stay and will be back !
The location was great and the accommodations were perfect. It was clean and continental breakfast was provided which was a great surprise. Would highly recommend 26Rows to anyone going to Martinborough.
The perfect location for wine tasting on our honeymoon.
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 26 Rows. Helen and family were very welcoming and the accomodation was perfect. Helen has thought of anything you may need for your stay. Being able to enjoy the wine produced by the vineyard whilst taking a walk along the rows accompanied by Morris (the dog) was a great highlight of our stay.Would certainly recommend!
The gatehouse was perfect for a stay in Martinborough. It was incredibly clean and well-maintained, the hosts had even stocked it with breakfast supplies. The place was cozy and comfortable, and it was close enough to the Martinborough square to walk. We only stayed for two nights but could easily have done more.
A great find. Quiet location close to everything and walking distance to the square. Accommodation provide everything you need, along with some continental breakfast items to kickstart your stay.
It's was very well appointed, with generous extras in terms of food,wine.. The only thing missing was the Hot Tub that was mentioned in the Book-a-bach listing of amenities. We were all looking forward to that.
Beautiful property, peaceful and relaxing. Enjoyed our stay here and would definitely like to come back and stay again. Our hosts made our stay feel extra special with the added luxury of food and drink items for our enjoyment. Definitely a five plus star experience.

The Gatehouse is a fantastic property
The Gatehouse is a fantastic property. Really well equipped and comfortable and in a great location to explore Martinborough and the surrounding area. Can't recommend this one highly enough.
We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay in the Gatehouse at 26Rows. From the well equipped and imaginatively styled house to the little extras that Helen provided, they all helped for a great holiday stay. The location is quiet, yet within easy reach of the many attractions in the area. We can’t wait to return.
This is a fabulous gem in Martinborough. The property is amazing, very well maintained, beautiful decor, lots of fantastic treats (wine, bread, eggs, juice, chocolates and homemade biscuits). The hosts go above and beyond. We'll definitely be back

We loved this property.
We loved this property. It has been created to a very high standard with lots of thoughtful touches for guests and lots of little surprises. It was a peaceful and unique setting but also really handy for us to duck into town and get out doing all that Wairarapa has to offer, especially wine tasting! Definitely coming back and recommending to friends.

Look no further.
Look no further. This property is perfect. Every amenity is provided: Heated bathroom floors and towel racks, high quality bed linens, breakfast supplies included fresh eggs from the neighbor, milk, coffee, tea, variety of cereals, fresh bread, butter and yogurt. They also provide a complementary bottle of their Sauv Blanc (Yum!) The place is spotless and in excellent condition. The property if beautiful. Even though it's on the same property as the main house, it feels very private. A must!
